    My cat loves it!

    My cat loves pork and these dried pork patties are no exception. While the larger packages are less expensive per ounce, I find that smaller packages are more likely to have pork patties instead of pork crumbs which are discarded. Also, pork crumbs are more likely when the product is delivered in the same box with heavier objects.

    Tippy is very finicky cat!

    I just completed long story. Lost when went back for pictures! Adopted Tippy last Xmas. Turned 3 yrs in May. Had only been given kibble. I know cat's desperately need wet food for water content. They tend to not drink lots of water but needed to avoid kidney problems they tend to develop. I tried over $200 the first month buying from Dropy the very best canned food. He refused every single brand! Was not eating. I resorted to the freeze dried brand I had fed my Havanese, Sophia for 17 yrs. Correction- I lived in Santa Barbara at the time and could buy the frozen raw. Much less expensive than freeze dried. However Dropy does not sell. I now live in Sacramento.Tippy was thrilled with the freeze dried Pork (one of least expensive and Rabbit ( most expensive)!I was relieved he was eating! However it seemed to be useless for the issue I was concerned about because he would only eat if I broke up into pieces but totally walked away when I added water as it is designed to have. Called the company and was told okay to give dry just be sure he has lots of fresh water. I ordered a fountain. If anyone is considering a fountain do not buy plastic! They hate and is bad for both dogs and cats. He enjoyed this. It has been two months since trying the canned so decided to try again. Same problem! He licks a spoonful of liquid, takes one bite and walks to other side of room where he cleans both paws for 30 min! He always eats every bite of his food with his paws. From picking up in bowl to putting in his mouth. I decided he just hates getting his paws wet!! Likely also because first 2.5 yrs of his life this was never presented to him and he seems to feel it is just WRONG for him to get dirty paws.Has anyone had this problem like this?I must say please read ingredients in this food. I have never found a better or equal quality anywhere. Just if you try be prepared to continue the monthly cost. And if your budget is like mine you will need to split the food budget 50/50 with your cat!!!
